Some Trick by Helen DeWitt

The greatest compliment I can give Helen DeWitt is reading her makes me want to write. She's clearly pursuing whatever the fuck she wants on the page and it's both admirable and inspiring.

Is it successful? Debatable. Even though found the occasional

It dissolves into more high-octane action at the end than I like, but everything leading up to the end is wonderful. I'm not generally a fan of novels with this many points-of-view (I tend to prefer a single main character really) because it always f ...more

I thought the structure and shape of this novel were interesting. Coming of age wrapped in the mundane of our early adult years. The dynamic between the couple and their friend was a classic Cory-Topanga-Shawn sort of set up.

Switzy by Emma Cline

Early on, Switzy does not read like previous books by Emma Cline. Our protagonist is an elderly man over 70 suffering with a variation of dementia. The prose is fragmented to complement his crumbling memory and his interiority is costumed in a believ ...more

Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell
"Sometimes you need a sad AF book.
